You don't necessarily have to read [book:Delilah Green Doesn't Care|54756850] to get the happenings in this book, but it does give you a good background on some of the other characters that we meet. Blake gets to build on Astrid's character in this book, as she unpacks a bunch of stuff she learned growing up and finally learns to be happy. There is great chemistry between her and Jordan, and I enjoyed the way their relationship evolved throughout the book. Jordan also has her own things to work through. Astrid and Jordan help each other work through their anxieties, their trauma, and make each other better for it.
If you're looking for some adult sapphic romance to read, I definitely recommend this series! I've loved both books I've read so far, and can't wait to get Iris's story next fall.

The Sherwood Inn has been in Jordan's family for generations and in her own heart for decades. She's recovering from heartbreak and grief and can't seem to do anything right anymore, but she can keep the inn from getting modernized into blandness by the predictably uptight Astrid.
A little light sabotage and a few power struggles raise more than the resident ghost at the inn in this enemies-to-lovers romance that features a later-in-life queer awakening and the excellent ride-or-die friends from the first book. Even though it has allllll the right vibes and backstories to appeal to me (historic inn! hot carpenter chick! perfectionist unraveling! implementing healthy boundaries!) the story and development just didn't flow for me. I'll definitely still check out Iris's story coming in book 3, though!
